I now have a new interest in coming back and learning more about this area of the world. This is a must see tour. Beautiful !!!”

6.Dubrovnik Shore Excursion: Old Town Walking Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 16 reviews · 1 hour 30 minutes (approx.) · from $27Best value

Explore Dubrovnik’s UNESCO-listed Old Town, from Pile Gate to the Cathedral, with a local guide and worry-free ship return.

“Outstanding tour of Old Town Dubrovnik with an amazing guide. While on a cruise ship stop at Dubrovnik, we decided to arrange our own tour of the Old Town instead of through the cruise line (booked the tour ahead of time). Maybe we lucked out, but instead of being in a large group navigating the tight alleyways of the old city, we, in our party of six (including two children ages 2 and 4), had a tour guide to ourselves. We were really able to dictate the pace of the tour and focus on the areas we wanted more information on. Our guide was extremely pleasant, very helpful and accomodating.…”

Review of Dubrovnik’s private Game of Thrones tour, with Trsteno, Lovrijenac, Lokrum, Old Town, Mount Srd, costs, and practical tips.

“Good communication before the tour. Guide and driver were at the meeting point but hard to find. We were there early and they did not have a sign with our name and the van was not marked. I walked around trying to find them for 10-15 minutes. The tour itself was great. The van was comfortable and the guide was knowledgeable. The information shared was great. Some places we did not go due to us not wanting to walk up stairs. The guide tailored this to our interests. She was knowledgeable and easy to understand. The trip out to Lokum island cost extra but was worth it. The tour ends…”
